(2) the individual is able to work and is available for the normal work week with the short-time employer;

(3) notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter to the contrary, an individual is deemed unemployed in any week for which remuneration is payable to him or her as an employee in an affected unit for less than his or her normal weekly hours of work as specified under the approved short-time compensation plan in effect for the week;

(4) notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter to the contrary, an individual shall not be denied STC benefits for any week by reason of the application of provisions relating to availability for work and active search for work with an employer other than the short-time employer.
